DescriptionCustomer Reviews (4)Customer Q&A

"Behind the controls of the roasting machine, the roaster checks gauges, fiddles with knobs and valves, and works to perfect each and every roast. We’ve named our Upsetter Espresso after Lee “Scratch” Perry, known as “The Upsetter”, a Jamaican musician famous for his unusual remixes, using 8-track analog recording to produce strange, unique, and beautiful sounds. Just as The Upsetter used reverb, volume, and pitch to perfect his mixes, we fiddle with the controls of our roasting machine to perfect our roasting of this unique espresso blend."

– Jacob Long, Roastmaster

The Upsetter stands out as a truly bold step for espresso: a lightly roasted blend of the finest coffees from all around the world.

It took over a year to develop the balanced taste and complex flavors of this espresso. Instead of using coffee from a single origin, Roastmaster Jacob Long played up the complexities imparted by different varietals. This one-of-a-kind blend includes sweet, nutty tastes of Nicaragua, spicy notes from Congo, and the beautiful fruit-forward qualities of Ethiopian beans.

By keeping the roast light, the end result is nuanced and lively; presenting richer flavors and deeper complexity than most dark roasted, single origin espressos.

Award Winning Coffee

The Upsetter beat out 170 other coffees in a double-blind taste test to win this year’s Good Food Award. The award highlights the superior flavor of our blended espresso while honoring our social and environmental responsibility.

More than just espresso 

Just because the Upsetter was designed as an espresso roast, doesn’t mean that it can’t be enjoyed as a drip coffee. French press, pour over, or cold brew, the Upsetter tastes great no matter how you prepare it.

Positive Rating The Real Upsetter
From Maria DiGiulio of Calistoga, California on 7/30/2020.

Superb Espresso and Americano! The light roast is deliciously nutty and sweet with nice bright fruity flavors. Thank you!

Positive Rating Full bodied flavor and aroma. Best ever
From Anonymous of Marietta , Georgia on 2/11/2020.

I am enjoying this well blended coffee like no other. Every bit as good as its description.

Positive Rating Incredible Coffee
From Michael Laster of Mountain View, California on 1/22/2020.

I have been a Thanksgiving Coffee home use person for over 20 years. Over the years I have gone from enjoying dark roast, then medium roast. I recently tried the Upsetter blend, even though it is listed as a light roast. This is an "ANY roast". It is incredibly good. Fantastic taste, flavor, feel. It is the best blend that I have ever enjoyed. I grind my beans, use a single cup Hario glass dripper and filters. Please try it. I now only buy Upsetter and Beaujolais Blend medium.

Positive Rating Great Coffee
From Bob of Indianapolis, Indiana on 8/21/2019.

Smooth mild taste.
